Title: Charles Jacobs on Why Feedback Doesn't Work

Author: Charles Jacobs

Narrator: Dave Summers

Format: Original Recording

Length: 17 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-31-14

Publisher: American Management Association

Genres: Business, Management

Publisher's Summary:

Business people are taught to make decisions with facts and logic, and to avoid emotional bias. But according to the latest research, we almost never decide rationally, despite thinking that we do. Our experiences carry an emotional charge encoded in the synapses of our neurons. And when we try to deny what our emotions tell us, we lose what weve learned from the past. That's just one of many recent discoveries that help explain why management is so challenging.

As author Charles Jacobs explains in new book, Management Rewired: Why Feedback Doesnt Work and Other Surprising Lessons From The Latest Brain Science, much of the conventional wisdom taught to managers is not only inadequate; it produces the opposite of what was intended. The better path is frequently counterintuitive.

Members Reviews:

Beware generational generalizations

Jill falls into a common problem for the branding industry of separating millennial by age group. This misses income and value differences that are overall more effective for predicting behavior than treating each generation differently. Even if you find large correlations by generation it is key to find them and know their exceptions as the broad stroke approach leads to lazy strategy and branding.
